More than 50 high profile conservatives signed onto a statement Wednesday responding to both House Speaker John Boehners harsh words for conservative groups earlier in the day and to the firing of the Republican Study Committees long-time executive director Paul Teller.

It is clear that the conservative movement has come under attack on Capitol Hill today, the statement reads.

I swore I was done with this crap but...One for the road. An open statement to those who KNOW you deserve it.

We tried warning you. We showed you the very words of the Founders themselves, of Reagan, of any number of knowledgeable and respected sources.

We showed you through historical example after historical example what would happen by supporting left wing presidential/congressional candidates and their ‘lesser evil”.

We begged, pleaded, argued and fought for hours, days, weeks and months to try to get you to see reason. Many of us, including myself came to the unfortunate but realistic conclusion that you had to feel enough pain before you’d come around because contrary all your demonstrated actions and ‘logic’ to the contrary, we still had hope that you had more intelligence locked away in you locked away than the average DU idiot.

Of course the fact that your stubborn pride prevented you from admitting your grave error, as each day the GOP had Scotty hit warp 9 in the Starship Republican on the way to the left, may have something to do with it. And so here we are. It has been a Shadenfreud-like experience these past two months to watch more and more people realize they were wrong, have felt enough pain and decided to abandon the GOP that has long-since abandoned them.

All I have to say is welcome to the party y’all. Hopefully this won’t be another case of all bluff and bluster until election day, when you revert to GOP excusemaking, lesser evil excusemaking and another round of attacking those who stood up and called you on your collective stupidity.

As for me, (and perhaps the rest of us who decided to leave you to your own devices, as I can’t speak for them) having been proven 100% DEAD NUTS CORRECT is good enough for me.

I can’t believe how many FReepers still accuse me of sitting on my hands and electing Obama, even though I voted for Romney. I have vowed that will be the last pragmatic, non-principled, strategerized vote I will ever cast.

I have personally fired the Republican’t Party. They have failed to do the job they claim on their party platform. They attack conservatives with many times more fury and frequency than they attack Democrats.

Geez, Norm. Don’t leave now. I have refused to reregister as a republican since I moved and I will not vote for any gope backed candidate unless they come on board with US because they no longer even pay lip service to me. The hell with them.

B. in his comments about “before they even saw what’s in it.’’’reminds me of the threat instituted with Obamacare. suggesting This budget deal may be as dangerous as Obamacare.
Details leaked also suggest our Congress does not trust its own leadership?

I'd tell Boehner boy to go to hell and that I'll never vote Republican again with their GOP-E candidates, but the reality is I'm stuck living in this shithole called Illinois and my vote doesn't count anyway.......

But still, FUJB!! Someone in Ohio PLEASE Primary his ass. I'd like nothing more than to donate to the person who runs against him AND WINS.

Good catch. What else has the Senate GOP let slip by, because elections? I mean Obama and the Dems are in self-destruct over Democratcare, but is the best strategy to just lay down? Why wouldn’t they take care of the unemployment extension in one grand deal?

That’s because the GOPe are nothing more than welfare queens for the dems. The dems got to them just like anyone else on a handout, and they are going to fight tooth and nail to get the scraps that are fed them.

The lefties attack Boehner AND conservatives with the same verve and vitriol. Yet, Boehner attacks and alienates conservatives. It’s a lose-lose for Boehner and RINO’s to continue on the path they’re taking. What’s left for them? Lobbyist $$?

It’s time to fight back and hit the bastards where it hurts! I’m going to support every Tea Party primary candidate I can until it hurts. We all should. Put these selfish, elitist, statist pigs out to pasture!
